EGL Donor Wall

You are here

The new El Gabilan Library will be approximately 20,000 square feet and 5-times larger than the old building. In addition to the study rooms, community meeting rooms, a makerspace, computer lab, and access to public printers and computers, we will also have a variety of reading and library materials for the community to borrow.

We welcome the community to support us by making monetary contributions that will be used to purchase quality books, magazines, movies, music and more. The community can contribute directly to the ​ Friends of Salinas Public Library (FOSPL) GoFundMe campaign, or by contacting Library and Community Services Director Kristan Lundquist at (831) 758-7311. We will acknowledge donors of $100 or more on the Donor Wall that will be featured on the second floor adult reading area at the new library. The donor acknowledgement levels are:

$100 - $4,999

$5,000 - $19,999

$20,000 - $49,999

$50,000 - $99,999

$100,000 and more

This is a great opportunity for individuals, businesses and nonprofits to make their mark on the community knowing that their contribution will impact future generations.
We thank the community in advance for their support and look forward to welcoming everyone to the new El Gabilan Library in early 2020.
